Hello fellow CMCr's

Well it still some time before our first event for 2005, but I thought I would start with some info.

Event is on March 12/13th, and a test day on Friday the 11th, if you feel the need, which means you can get in as early as Thursday night.

This is the big one, as like 150+ mph on the oval with the infield road course too, in case you have never been there.

Its fast, its fun, and it BIG!!

I'll be there, will you..lets get a huge field together and give them a great show.

Are you in??

Count the #44 Camaro to be there for our first race! Just dyno'd yesterday, so we will be ready. That's two for Northern California. How about those So-Cal racers?????

I'll be there in my almost ready mustang. Might be able to run the HPDE. I need a few more things for this car and I need to get some pics of seat and window net installations.

Per, Dean (crew chief) and I should be there. We're testing at Willow Springs on the weekend of the 20th. Shaking down a new clutch and rear-end. (Also testing out our New Aero------hmmmm). H.P. and torque still basically suck, but we'll definately be faster. Per's in Daytona, helping crew for one of the Porsche teams for the 24-Hour. The Dog. Well, see you all at the track, looks like there should be a great turnout. Esse' #81... P.S. Al, It worked. Log in first, then hit Reply. Never had to do it before, tho. Dang Computers, you'd think some of them have a mind of their own.

Many of us have stayed at the Amerihost Inn and Suites on Baseline in Fontana for several years Nothing is real close to the track but this is not far and lots of restaurants and grocery stores as well as free breakfast (well continental breakfast).

Hey all,

We'll be there with the 82, I love this track configuration. When we were at the Truck Race last weekend, I was trying to figure out the fast way around 1 and 2, and there seemed to be several.

With the weather we've been having I was holding off preregistering until I was more comfortable that the weather would cooperate. We've been having some pretty intense rain out in San Berdoo County! I've tried to get a new roof for 3 weeks, but the rain has not cooperated.

 

We'll be there Friday for practice, as well.

Hey Kevin, If I remember my NASA event refund policy right....if you don't show up you will be credited back your full $. They started doing this to get folks to sign up early and not penalize them if something came up like weather. So sign up now buddy!

Saturday night :

Plan on hanging around for dinner/drinks at the track,since we will all be there anyway,and Ryan/ John and the A/I group will be there also...plus a very special guest which I have sworn to not reveal...or I will be killed.

Also some other good stuff is planned,so yes I'm getting back into the grove of things now that its getting so close and I'm getting excited .

Friday I can do your annuals,bring your logbooks and Dyno's and money so we can place some bets on who will win.

What else ...any questions???

OK, Al needs to get his priorites straight. Kaiser has a great hospital just a few minutes from Cal Speedway, with a good reputation for its baby delivery wing. Just come on down, and have the baby in So Cal.

 

(This is my response to his "joke" about Laguna Seca, I was already on the phone making reservations.)

 

Se everyone in 2 weeks, I better get started prepping the car...Tow Hooks and washing off the dirt after the fog out at Buttonwillow.

You're right Kevin - I tried to tell him that since this is their first, she's gonna probably be in labor for about 30 hours - so even if it happens while he's at the track, there's PLENTY of time to get back home for the big event.

Hey Per,

 

You can order a full or 1/2 test day when you sign up online for the event, I signed up for a full test day, that was $160. I don't remember what the 1/2 day was, it was less, of course!

 

Looking forward to running a new track!
